Responsibilities

Set up and maintain the scripting and automation environment around wireless test setups (lab and HIL)
Derive, design, and implement test cases for 3GPP Stack and PHY-level features (LTE and preferably 5G NR)
Develop Python (and/or equivalent) scripts to automate test execution, log collection, and result analysis; contribute light C code where needed
Perform software regression testing to validate new features, bug fixes, and releases
Analyze test logs and pcap files to perform detailed failure analysis, identify root causes, and provide clear remediation recommendations
Use wireless measurement and channel emulation equipment (e.g., Amarisoft, Viavi, Propsim, Spirent, Keysight, Rohde & Schwarz) to execute and debug test scenarios
Track defects and issues using an issue-tracking system such as Jira, driving them through the full lifecycle with clear, reproducible descriptions
Prepare and deliver concise test reports, maintain test repositories, and contribute to continuous improvement of test coverage and quality processes
Collaborate closely with cross-functional teams (SW, FW, RF, systems, product) to ensure testability is designed into new features from the outset
